Emmy Turns 6

Emma is six years old now! It's so hard to believe! She wanted to eat at Mim's Cafe and have a blue cake, so that's what we did. :) We are so thankful for our precious little princess! We love you Emma Jane!

A mothers love is truly cherished even when it isn't acknowledged

The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.

My mom is a neverending song in my heart of comfort, happiness, and being. I may sometimes forget the words but I always remember the tune. ~Graycie Harmon

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.
~Washington Irving

Who ran to help me when I fell,
And would some pretty story tell,
Or kiss the place to make it well?
My mother.

Blessed indeed is the man who hears many gentle voices call him father!
~Lydia M. Child, Philothea: A Romance, 1836

The father who would taste the essence of his fatherhood must turn back from the plane of his experience, take with him the fruits of his journey and begin again beside his child, marching step by step over the same old road.
~Angelo Patri

It is much easier to become a father than to be one. ~Kent Nerburn

The words that a father speaks to his children in the privacy of home are not heard by the world, but, as in whispering-galleries, they are clearly heard at the end and by posterity.
~Jean Paul Richter

I love my father as the stars - he's a bright shining example and a happy twinkling in my heart. ~Adabella Radici

Old as she was, she still missed her daddy sometimes.
~Gloria Naylor

Fathers represent another way of looking at life - the possibility of an alternative dialogue.
~Louise J. Kaplan

There's something like a line of gold thread running through a man's words when he talks to his daughter, and gradually over the years it gets to be long enough for you to pick up in your hands and weave into a cloth that feels like love itself.

Distance Means so little, when someone means so much.

Good Times

You are my friends and I am honored

My family nourishes my soul..

A memory that I hope my children will treasure is our gingerbread neighborhoods

A mothers love is truly cherished even when it isn't acknowledged

Sending and receiving love warms the heart

Dad, your guiding hand on my shoulder will remain with me forever.

Children are our daily miracles..

"A friend loveth at all times." - Proverbs 17:17
